OxTalks will soon move to the new Halo platform and will become 'Oxford Events.' There will be a need for an OxTalks freeze. This was previously planned for Friday 14th November – a new date will be shared as soon as it is available (full details will be available on the Staff Gateway).
In the meantime, the OxTalks site will remain active and events will continue to be published.
If staff have any questions about the Oxford Events launch, please contact halo@digital.ox.ac.uk
Lincoln’s collection of 39 Greek manuscripts is largely the gift of Sir George Wheler (1651-1724), who assembled the collection during his travels in the Ottoman Empire in the 1670s. Dr Parpulov is currently working on a new catalogue of these manuscripts and in this talk he will be looking at what the cataloguing project can tell us about Wheler, his collection of manuscripts, and the ways in which the study of Greek manuscripts has evolved since Wheler’s time.
There will also be an exhibition of some of the manuscripts Dr Parpulov will be discussing. Since these are normally housed in the Weston Library, this will be a rare opportunity to see them in College. We look forward to seeing you there.
The talk will take place in the Oakeshott Room at 5.15pm on Thursday 7th March; everyone is welcome and no booking is necessary. We will also be streaming the talk on Zoom; if you would like the link, contact sarah.cusk@lincoln.ox.ac.uk.
